[C38] Companionway doors

[Joseph Launie]

Max,
    I designed a set of doors and had a shipwright build them. They have 
a 3 inch wide piece that slides in the bin board slot with a bolt 
sticking out the bottom. The bolt fits in to a hole cut in the sill on 
each side. The board is held in by a small brass sliding latch bolt at 
the top. The doors which are teak with a plexiglass interior are 
attached to this outer board  and the whole thing just slips in and out. 
They can be removed in one minute and there is nothing to catch sails 
on. I do not have to bend down for this so hope to take pictures Sunday 
when the crew tells me we are racing. Joe Launie, Macavity
